"The suddenness, radical disorientation, the sensation to be withdrawn from the normal course of time, 
the intuitive certitude to have come in contact with a real ordinarily hidden, 
the overwhelming joy, the serenity, the sense of wonder.

Free from Change

...all god is good, free from passion, free from change. 
For whatever suffers change does so for the worse or the better; 
if for the worse, it is made bad; if for the better, it must have been bad at first.” 
Sallustius, On the Gods and the Cosmos, I
